Passive Design Solutions is a team passionate about designing high-efficiency homes that are easy to build, economical to maintain and beautiful to call home.

Living in a passive house means living in a space that is naturally warmer, healthier and more comfortable. Our houses work by using simple, durable materials put together in ways that use the sun and wind to our advantage. The result is a huge reduction in energy and maintenance costs, while creating a home that is ideal for you and your lifestyle.
